Rothmans Porsches. They were cool, and they were fast as anything. So fast, in 1983, people really wanted one. And to make a point as to how good it was, it filled 9 of the top 10 positions at the 1983 24hrs of Le Mans.
So what happened with that? And was it as easy as it looked? Let's have a dive into the history books and see what happened...

One of my favourite race cars of all time. I bought the VCR tape of "In car 956" just so I could see what LeMans and the ring looked like. Back then in Canada we didn't see the WEC races and we certainly never saw in car footage. I remember Vern Schuppan bringing one to run in the second gen Can Am series and seeing it at Mosport. It was a jewel compared to the big brawny Frissbee and Lola 5000 cc monsters .

The 956 / 962 along with the 917, 935 and 944 were and still are my favorite looking racing sports cars. There was something about the lines and looks about those cars. Of course, my love of the 917 came from the movie Le Mans that I saw in the theatres in 1971; that's what got me into endurance sports car racing.

6:45 956s were very much ground effect cars. So were all Group C and GTP cars through the 1992 seasons. There was eventually a mandatory 900 mm flat SECTION regulating where the kick point for the tunnel could start, and later a 280 mm tunnel ceiling height from the reference plane, but they very much were tunnel underbodies. Later developments of said cars were making 9000 - 10,000 lbs of downforce at a (theoretical) 200 mph, likely more than any circuit race cars ever developed.

Fantastic story, Aidan. Really interesting. I have often wondered what TAG stood for (not so much that I had the energy to look it up). It makes perfect sense. Driving down Mulsanne holding the door shut!? That's officially insane. I used to have a sweatshirt (I was about 7 IIRC) with "Pobody's Nerfect." It went with my "Look out, here comes trouble" one.

One of the best looking racecars of all time. It looks so wonderfully over the top: ₛₘₐₗₗ wheels at the front, 🅱 🅸 🅶 wheels at the back, flattened front end, massive rear end with wings, winglets and two large turbochargers sticking out and spitting flames every time the car downshifted. Both the Porsche 935 and the Group 5 Special Production series deserve dedicated videos about how absolutely mental those cars were. Group 5 cars were like normal sports cars turned into monsters on 4 wheels.

The Le Mans rules for 1982 were that Group C cars had to have a flat bottom between the axles, limiting the ground effect available from the tunnels. It meant the cars couldn't run with skirts to seal the tunnels like F1 cars had previously.

You should have just used the 962 for footage, its basically the same car really. The only difference was that they changed the chassis a little due to in the 956, your legs go in front of the rear axle, and for the new rules on safety they had to be behind the rear axle like you have mentioned, and had 1 turbo instead of 2, and a few other minimal changes.

962 was single turbo in IMSA spec, but elsewhere (WSC, Interserie, DRM, JSPC etc) it still had 2, just like the 956. That's why the IMSA cars have the ugly hump on top for air intake to the single central turbo, but all the other 956/962 have NACA ducts or snorkels on each side, one per turbo.

Do you have the Michael Cotton Group C book from 1988? I think that has an explanation of the rules in it. From memory, there was a small underside area that was required to be flat, but you could comply with that and still create large ground effect tunnels. I’ll go check my copy and get back to you if it has some useful info.

Quick check, not much different from what I posted. The flat plane area is pretty much just the area that would normally be under the monocoque. This leaves ample area for both foward diffusers and the main aft diffuser. No Lotus-style skirts permitted.

The Rothmans one is a particular favourite, but the way it has long, winding surfaces means that most liveries and logos can look good without much effort. And, personally, speaking, its evolution (the 962) is one of my fave cars in GT7!

Stefan Johansson was listed as a driver for the No.7 New Man Porsche ran by Joest Racing, but he never got in the car during the race. He stuck to car No.8 which was a DNF with engine failure after 14 hours (the New Man Joest team also had a 3rd car, No.12 which actually finished 5th).

If the 963 is gonna be a worthy successor to Porsche's sports-prototype lineage, it's got a _long_ way to go. Currently the 963 is quite the disservice to the proud history of Penske-Porsche collaborations considering that the 917/30 Gr7 car helped contribute to the demise of Can-Am and the RS Spyder LMP2 was so effective it forced major rule changes to LMP2 to stop Porsche from beating the LMP900's & price-gouging the second-tier category.

This is why the 1980's are so venerated as far as motorsport was concerned, with the technology matched with legends of the race track and will remain so, long after snorefests like the 2023 F1 season will be consigned to the rubbish bin of history. This was the era of Group C, and you can't get more Group C than the 956 - a car so dominant in its field, it had to take another car from Porsche to end its dominance. And all those liveries - my God, those liveries. Good luck trying to compile all those. Mind you, having said all that - 1:22. Start bowing down.

I was there but I don’t really, really remember. Articles in magazines don’t impact like live footage, apparently. Except for the Bellof crash, that one hurt me to the bone.

No, they only run demo laps at Goodwood circuit and not fast on the piddly little hillclimb. Instead get to a Masters Series race, Donington, Brands, Silverstone, they are usually at at least one per year, with 50's/60's GT & Touring Cars, Sportscars, 70s-80s Formula One, Formula Junior, 70s Le Mans cars. Peter Auto usually uploads the weekend's races on KZfaq. Tickets for a Masters weekend are usually 40-50 quid, for 2 days' racing.

100 liter fuel tank, 5 refueling stops allowed per 1000km. Okey, I'm not math god, but I don't think that turns into an effective Milage of 600 liters per 100km? 100 liters per 200km? Or Am I a complete nucking potato?

Should be 60l/100km, or 600 litres for the 1000km race. Equivalent to 4.7mpg imperial, or roughly 3.8mpg US.

Ah, the REAL Group C car banned because it was too good! Whatever IMSA said publicly, the results of the 962 with the longer front footwell, betray their intent.

That Mazda myth is one of my favourites. Purely because the Dorito fanbois get so upset when you say the car wasn’t as fast as they think it was.

I'm still a little bitter about the 963 using the rs spyder/carrera gt engine. Shoulda been a turbo flat-6

It's a V8 turbo. Carrera GT was a V10. It needs to be based on a roadcar block (something available in the manufacturers range) and the torque of the V8 was deemed better. Plus for marketing in the US, where GT3 and LMDH manufacturers are often the same to cut entry costs, Porsche already had an N/A Flat 6 on track (same in WEC wIth the GTE), so better for the marketing to use both.

600L per 100km is 0.39mpg, 2.5 gallons per mile. People were complaining this was economy?
